pmb on job creation

He said: "We are in difficult times economically, but we'll continue to do our best for manufacturing to pick up. We must begin to behave as if we have no oil at all.

 "We will gladly have policy somersaults, if it will mean more jobs, particularly for youths. I campaigned on three major planks. To effectively secure our country, provide employment through revamping the economy, and wage a relentless war against corruption. I intend to keep faith with these promises."

"It shows the carelessness of past governments, if almost 300,000 people lose their jobs in a single sector. We have a clear idea of how we can stimulate employment and we will work very hard to do so," he said.
